Bruins Logo Knitting Chart

I love receiving emails from readers. This morning, I got the following communication from Pat: "Thank you for sharing the Red Sox logo chart. I would like to make my grandsons a hat with the Boston Bruins logo. I have found the logo on line but it is way too big for a child’s hat. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you in advance for your help."

I enjoy the opportunity to help out my readers with a project. I am therefore pleased to present you two Boston Bruins Logo knitting charts! (Hopefully the smaller chart will work on a child's hat. It may be necessary to use sport or DK weight yarn to get this to fit properly.)

Small Bruins Knitting Chart: 21 rows x 17 columns

Large Bruins Knitting Chart: 32 rows x 26 columns

A note about the circles: Knit stitches are not symmetrical, and frequently they are wider than they are tall. Therefore, these knitting charts ave more stitches in the vertical direction than they do in the horizontal direction. The cell width I use in my knitting charts is 9 pixels high x 12 pixels wide.

This is a perfect circle drawn across the in-progress small Bruins logo knitting chart.

Unfortunately this isn't something that I can complete in a timely manner for your gift. Although I love to receive reader requests for charts and designs, I am not able to produce them immediately. At any one time, I am working on multiple different projects.

I do not have a pattern to a bruins hat on this site, only the logo knitting chart. I do have a generic skullcap knitting pattern that would fit the logo (huge on one with the large logo or multiple sides of the head.) There are 33 rows between the ribbing and decreases.

The finished size depends entirely on the size needles and yarn you use for your project. The number of stitches and rows for each chart are located directly under the image. One is 21 rows x 17 stitches and the other is 32 rows x 26 stitches.
